From the dielectric spectrum formula, the spectra of optical and dielectric constants can be obtained in the whole frequency region. Three dielectrics, water, ethanol, and toluene, are taken as examples. In the region where the ex- perimental data are available, the spectra of the optical constants calculated by the formula are in good agreement with the real refractive spectrum obtained by Kramers-Kronig (K-K) transform and the experimental imaginary refractive spectrum. In the region where no ex- perimental data are available, the extrapolation of our formula can make predictions. The merits of the present treatment are that we are able to get the uniform spectrum formula, without splitting into different frequency sections, and the analytical form of the dielectric spectra will be useful in the theoretical description of solvation dynamics.展开更多
Frequency and temperature dependent dielectric dispersion of 20PbF2?20TeO2?(60?x)B2O3?xEu2O3(x=0 to 2.5, mole fraction, %) glasses prepared by the melt?quenching technique were investigated in the frequency r...Frequency and temperature dependent dielectric dispersion of 20PbF2?20TeO2?(60?x)B2O3?xEu2O3(x=0 to 2.5, mole fraction, %) glasses prepared by the melt?quenching technique were investigated in the frequency range 1 Hz?10 MHz and temperature range 313?773 K. Dielectric relaxation dynamics was analyzed based on the electric modulus behavior. Dielectric losses (tanδ) are found to be negligibly small in the temperature range 313?523 K, proving good thermal stability of the glasses. The present Eu2O3-doped oxyfluroborate glasses showed low dielectric loss at higher frequency and lower temperature, proving their suitability for nonlinear optical materials.展开更多

The results indicate that changes in dielectric spectra reflect effects of heavy metal on the structure and function of E. coli cells. Heavy metal can change membrane capacitance as well as pennittivity and conductivity of the cytoplasm. Changes in volume fraction suggested that dielectric measurement could monitor the growth of E. coli cells. These results demonstrated that dielectric spectroscopy was a potential effective technique for studying electric properties of biological cells.展开更多
